SECONDARY SCHOOL RECORD - TRANSCRIPT

In evaluating this transcript, please consider the following:

1. Cherry Hill High School East uses a "tracking" system which permits students to take all academic courses on four levels. These are designated as Advanced Placement {AP) or Honors (H), Accelerated (A), and Regular College Prep. (R).

2. A weighted system of determining a student's grade point average is used. (See Above).

3. In July 2009, the Cherry Hill Board of Education adopted a new procedure regarding the reporting of class rank on seniors' transcripts. Seniors now have the option to either report or not report their class rank to colleges and universities.

4. Any students who take the majority of their courses at the R level will, because of the weighted system, show a class rank which· is in the middle three quintiles of the class.

5. The top two quintiles will primarily include those students who take their courses on the AP/Honors and/or Accelerated levels.

6. Since approximately 90% of the graduating class will continue their education after graduation, it is accurate to say that most of the students enrolled in Regular College Prep. level courses will enter college.
